The CPS explicitly recognized Brazil's significant achievements in tackling second-generation development challenges using innovative approaches that the Bank can share with other member countries. Examples include effective conditional cash transfer programs, a successful framework for ensuring sub-national fiscal discipline and cost-effective clean energy sources. The CPS also recognized Brazil's critical contributions to the development of the global policy agenda and the provision of global public goods in areas such as climate change and the fight against global infectious diseases. This progress report briefly takes stock of the implementation of the strategic framework embedded in the CPS, focusing on what has changed in the country context and on how the World Bank Group has implemented its program while adapting to the new realities and evolving demands of the Government of Brazil (GOB).
